In a recent interview, the 47-year-old actor said that his upcoming movie has a great message that one does not have to win to be a winner and therefore, as a parent, he wants his own kids and their friends to watch the film, People magazine reports.

'The Wolverine' actor added the film will also give great fun to kids and will make them smile.

Directed by Dexter Fletcher, the upcoming film is an uplifting underdog movie about Michael 'Eddie" Edwards (Taron Egerton), an amateur ski-jumper who represented Great Britain at the 1988 Calgary Olympic Games.

The movie is set to hit the theaters on February 26, 2016.
